Thank you for your answer. Yes, it is still being offered by Tabletennis11. However, I am curious why it is not listed in their global website, so I assume that it is discontinued. At least they are still keeping Offensive S in their list of products. It is a good blade as well, considering...

Hi, I am just curious, since I own Xiom Solo. It is a good blade but Xiom Offensive S is more popular. However, if I look at Xiom Global site (https://xiom.global/), they don't have Xiom Solo listed in their blades selection. However, at Xiom Europe site, they still list Solo as part of...

I agree with you. Donic Persson Powerplay is a really good blade, given the price. It was used by Jorgen Persson himself to win European and World Championship (back then). However, regarding the speed of the blade, I think it is only Off-. I believe that Tibhar Stratus Powerwood is...

Actually back in the days (long time ago), I remember it was called "Mark Five". But in the past few years, I have heard younger players call it "Mark Vee" . It is currently not a popular rubber anymore, even for beginners.

As written by other forum members above, I also suggest you to keep playing with your Neottec Voodo Classic. It is basically a replica of Butterfly Petr Korbel. It is limba - limba - ayous - limba -limba with thickness of 5.9 mm. So from this specification, it is a replica of Korbel in term...

I can only say things about Pro 01 (I own this) and V14 Pro (my friend owns this). First, I think people buy these 2 blades to get a substitute for BTY Viscaria because Viscaria is quite expensive. At that time, I already own a Viscaria, but I am intrigued by my friend's blade (V14 Pro)...

I only know Nittaku Septear. I guess there are also Septear Feel and Septear Feel Inner now. What is the difference between the ordinary Septear vs. Septear Feel?

My TT friend tore his ACL on one knee about 6 - 8 months ago. After surgery, he was supposed to rest for at least 6 months, but in his case, after only 3 months he started playing again (with knee brace) and changed his BH to pips (so he did not have to run around, he said). But this is a...

Looking at the picture above (for Petanque), I don't think it is suitable for old folks. I think it is bad for your back. I cannot bend over like that, and even if I do, I can't standup straight immediately. :giggle:

Yes, Sanwei Fextra One (Fextra 7, previously named) is a good blade given the economical price. Regarding your issue whether Yinhe Pro 01 is suitable or not for a beginner: I know that Yinhe Pro 01 is similar to Viscaria (so it is a fast blade) and you think that you have better control with...

:ROFLMAO: I was just writing about this, but instead of LP OX, I was gonna write Illegal Pips. Beat me by few minutes. ;)

Yasaka Sweden Extra, Powerallround, Allround Evolution have the same thickness, which is approximately 6 mm. I think it is the ideal thickness for allwood blades to deal with new 40+ plastic ball. Composition wise: Powerallround and Allround Evolution: limba - ayous - ayous - ayous - limba...

I thought I was the only one with shoulder problem. I don't remember how it happened. It was just one day playing table tennis and suddenly I felt sharp pain in my shoulder every time I swing my arm. I know something is torn there. However, after months of rest, I played again and the pain...

What is the head size of the current commercial HL5? If I remember correctly, the earlier HL5 has big head, bigger than Korbel (158x152 mm).

With the 40+ plastic ball, I feel that some of those classic blades are not that well suited anymore, even for beginners. I think at least we need a bit of "back bone", i.e. stiffness, to deal with this 40+ plastic ball. So I opted for Yasaka Sweden Extra or Tibhar Samsonov Alpha, if a...

There are 3 blades that are basically the same blade: Stiga Allround Evolution Donic Persson Powerallround Tibhar Samsonov Premium Contact All three of them are composed of limba - ayous (red) - ayous - ayous (red) - limba. All three of them are around 5.9 - 6 mm in thickness. The...

@Gozo, I see it in different perspective here: You coach thinks that you are hopeless. You can't do any better no matter what he teaches you. So he gave up on you and let you just learn from experience. He is better off training other players who would succeed and elevate his name as the...

I have used Yasaka Falck W7 for just one session. It is a good blade, but at that time, I didn't want to switch from my current blade. I would say that W7 is better than Clipper. The reason is that, although W7 is 7-ply, but the construction makes it feel like a stiffer and harder 5-ply...

We are all friends so we usually just shout out "THANK YOU"

If your reply referred to Donic Persson Powerplay, then it is not a composite blades in my opinion. When they say it contains foil, it is much speculated that the foil is indeed a paper like material. And we know that paper is made of wood. So basically it is 7-ply allwood. If you have the...
